How do you stop thinking about the fact that your job could disappear tomorrow? I know I can't control it, but that doesn't make the worry any easier.

I'm praying for layoffs to happen. Never thought this day would come, but it did. I just need this to be over.

So i got a letter today regarding cobra election. The monthly amount from optum does not reflect what i am currently you paying at all. If about four times the amount. What should i do??

Anyone have an insight regarding VCG? Customer service is going through training to become universal reps, our jobs are now ai and outsourced. My supervisor is extremely paranoid about everything! This makes our team feel like something is up.

Why hasn't a main stream jounalistic reporting website not reported this event? Something is odd here

About a cover-up....

Despite assurances of renewed investment and a commitment to avoiding layoffs, Lee Enterprises has recently implemented staff reductions. These cuts have impacted editors and copy editors across various publications owned by the company. While the company spokesperson stated that no reporters were affected, some laid-off individuals performed reporting duties. The affected employees expressed disappointment, feeling that the actions contradict the chairman's public statements about saving local news. These layoffs raise concerns about the future direction of the company's local news operations.

No ideas as I saw people who delivered few things are let go?

I was in a meeting this week and 40% of those in the room were principal engineers or senior principal engineers. Collectively they knew zero about what was being discussed. There was me and one other person who actually understood the technical details. After the meeting he shared that he too had been rocketed to the bottom of the assessments.

Good luck to all once you get rid of those of us who actually understand oil and gas.

Did he really just dismiss the empty formalities or he no longer cares to pretend that he cares?

BofA is going to be left in the dust with AI big time. Their technology team is locking workers out of AI tools so that only tech can create them. Why you say? 80% for their own job security, 10% control and 10% tools are new to them. It is a sad day when their own job security will cause a company this size to lose the AI battle. We were already behind and tech’s selfishness will ki-l them.

BofA Leadership - wake up to this fact before it is too late!!!!!!!!!!!

What is actually happening with Wholesale Payments?

Remember not to participate. Immediately send the email to the recycle bin where it belongs. They clearly have showed that they don't care, so, why even participate? If the responses are low maybe they will do something. The responses have been negative and they clearly don't care.

Unspeakable

It’s so weird. We are still trying to work with whatever we have but there is no direction or communication from leadership.

Does anyone know why the final paycheck is 137.00 dollars less than normal?

I heard it's a signficant cut that includes me.

It seems like the pay range has been adjusted lower on workday. Does everyone see that?

We are spending money on this?
Today, our group of 10 Truist leaders begins our Yosemite Leadership Expedition—three days of challenge, connection, and leading with wellbeing.
This year also marks a special milestone: our first female executives joining the annual leader expedition!

Our journey takes us toward Clouds Rest and then Half Dome, where we plan to summit on the morning of September 11. On the 25th anniversary of 9/11, we will carry the American flag, Truist banner, and Truist torch in remembrance of those we lost and in honor of the courage and sacrifice we will never forget.

Of course Hagerman is front and center of this nonsense. What could this bank possibly hope to accomplish with this stunt? A Truist torch taken across the country and even the mountains of Italy. Make it make sense!

At TMT Osvaldik indicated that we will not enable a Starlink MVNO. But since our D2D joint venture with ATT / Verizon was announced, rumors have circled that T-Satellite will be ditching Starlink for AST Spacemobile once their service us up. If this happens I fear that SpaceX has no choice but to acquire us - as its the only way they will be able to provide true terrestrial service to the U.S. market. That would result in a major bloodbath (we all saw what happened when Elon acquired X). Doubt it would make financial sense, but SpaceX can easily raise the $ and they are looking deep into the future.

Can someone please talk me off this cliff?

I normally get my check on Thursday but did not receive it today. Anyone know if they do something weird with the last check? I can usually see deposits 2-3 days in advance and I see nothing incoming.

Just curious if anyone knows if Microsoft, AWS, Google, Oracle are doing PIPs as much as IBM? I know every company does them, but to what extent?

Seems like ba--s, and glass ba--s at that, are dropping every day. People getting hurt, process safety near miss, and unplanned shutdowns. Is this the beginning of a long downward spiral. Investors run, run like the wind

Maybe we shouldnt worry about layoffs, we'll all be gone anyway.

Or did we really reach the bottom? It feels like we cannot sink any further.

An older neighbor of mine, a Citi customer, was recently scammed through a phone call. With such a massive organization and so many teams, how does customer protection still fall through the cracks? What exactly are all those teams accountable for?

What's he even yapping about?

Just when you think it couldn’t get worse

HR mentioned it was a bunch of people getting laid off today. Anyone else?

Is the work staying with Optum or moving to Sutter? Any layoff info?

I guess no news, is good news.

Or, there is more to come...

Yep more coming today

Another survey they're going to ignore.

well BDX is at 178 today......christ almighty when will TP be held accountable??? Guess more layoffs coming soon........

Is it possible that leaders get worse and worse? I thought we’d reached the bottom of the barrel but this was a new low for webcasts.

Remember….key message….you should look forward to being sold as you may get more money in your business…and….

I’m in charge of safety…….but I care about money….i care about money….save money…..

A sad day.

Anthropic Researcher Warns There’s ‘>10% Chance’ AI Could ‘Ki-l All Humans’ By Next Decade

Was talking to a HR consultant yesterday. Was absolutely blown away when she told me every 2nd CV she is seeing is either current or ex PayPal employee. And they are coming from junior, middle and senior level employees. What in the world is happening. It seems except Enrique and his cronies, everyone is jumping the ship.
